The drain cover is raised to a height that is dangerous. I tripped over it on a walk and have witnessed a wheelchair user almost tip out of their chair.

This is located on a footpath at What3Words location ///spins.major.buck

Council ref: ENQ251050507

    This is raised so much that I tripped on this. And my friend who is in a wheel chair is struggling to get over this drain daily.

  • I’m the wheelchair user who has nearly tipped out of my wheelchair several times, this drain is ridiculously high compared to path and it makes it very difficult to navigate when in a wheelchair. I have to use that path several times a day for school run and my luck is going to run out. Please can it be fixed and sorted
